Abstract
The aim of the present paper is to provide a decent description and guide about the software related tasks regarding electrical experimental vehicles. In the paper two vehicles will be presented from a software development point of view. Besides that necessary additional information will be provided too and therefore a complex development process will be detailed. The mentioned two electrical vehicles are SZElectricity and SZElectra both developed at the Research Center of Vehicle Industry in the Széchenyi István University.
